arcosine -- I'm with you on the taller gearing. One of the parts I have is a 5-speed conversion transaxle. It basically has a low and a high 4th. I've seen the original receipt recently and it tells the ring and pinion ratio, but I don't recall. With swing axles and Type III drum brakes, it is intended for the panel van.
I found the variable main jet discussed on thesamba.com. It's out of production and it was for the 30 PICT. I've got a 34 PICT. Once I've got a mileage baseline, I'd like to try the Gene Berg Jet-A-Vator. It's a restrictor plate, plus.
aerohead -- So far I've found
Full-boat-tail trailer with gap-fillers for Toyota T-100 pickup and
2011 Prius to get full boat tail w/ faired trailer that spun off from it, but I haven't found the earlier post referenced on the first page. But that's 38 pages anyway, so I've got some reading to do.

The challenge is providing cooling air,but NACA submerged inlets could work for that.

I've given some thought to taking engine air from a horn shaped scoop that runs along the drip rail as it departs from the template line. I tried to picture it in Photoshop but I wasn't satisfied. I need to get back to modelling in 3D. Until then just imagine sucking up to 600 cubic feet per minute of the air that's trying to spill over the edge. Do you think that could kill vortex formation?
